Since 2010, Inter Milan have been the team that have won the UEFA Champions League, a great achievement that has made Serie A unique in European football. However, since then, the Serie A team has never tasted the Big Ears Cup again, and it has become a heavy burden that squeezes the heart of every Serie A fan.
Juventus have won the Champions League many times, but they have always fallen short. Last season, Inter reached the final but unfortunately lost to Manchester City. Now, Serie A is back on the swing and they are eager to get back to the top, and this time, their hopes are very high!
In the first leg of the knockout round, Inter Milan hosted Atletico Madrid, and a fierce battle began. Although Inter dominated most of the time, Atletico were tenacious and came close to a draw.
According to statistics, Inter had a whopping 19 shots (compared to Atletico's seven), almost twice as many as their opponents, but did not score until the 79th minute. Arnautovic's crucial strike made the difference and it was such a precious goal!
Of course, Atletico can't be blamed, they have been quite good and Inter are breathtakingly strong. As for Inter, they deserved this victory. If home advantage can't beat Atletico, it means that Inter's opponents are indeed in a bad fate.
In the next away game, Inter only need a 0-0 draw to advance to the quarterfinals. With their strength, this is not a difficult task. But Inter's goal is not to stop there, they are eager to win the title and make up for last season's disappointment.
In addition, Lazio's defeat of Bayern Munich last week also gave Serie A fans hope. Serie A is on the rise, and they have what it takes to challenge any of the European giants. If Napoli can beat Barcelona in their next fixtures, Serie A will be even stronger. This season, Serie A could lift the Champions League trophy at any time, especially Inter Milan, who are no longer afraid of any opponent, not even Manchester City, may not be sure to beat Inter Milan again!
